DEIR AND Fox HUNTING THROUGH As1rcu,


RLL-RAILRoADs-MI MINING.
DR.. II. B. Weaver has been absent from
the city two weeks and returned yester-
day. He, with party Of friends and the
Reems Creek Fox and Deer Hounds
went on hunt through the counties ol
Yancsy and Mitchell, going as far as
Cranberry in the latter county. They
had splendid sport, caught five foxes and
two deer, but ran large number of the
latter in the neigh borhood of Flat Rock
in Mitchell These would break for a
large boundary which is kept posted
and this always proved a place of refuge
for the deer.
DIR. Weaver says Mitchell county il
certainly improving, and substantially.
The Three C.s Railroad to ranberry ie
considered a Certainty, and everything is
stimulated thereby. Mica miuing is
again becoming active, as heavy
demand for that article Las suddenly
sprung up. The Clarigsa Mine, which
has been idle for some time has again
been put in active operation, with con
tinued good results.
In Yancey he found the people more
than anxious concerning the Aeheville,
Burnsville and Cranberry Rail Road
and ready to do anything within their
power by way of subscription, to secure
it. They are universally anxious for
rail road connection with Asherile, and
they may be assured the people OF Ashe,
vile are not in IL least unmindful OF
the great mutual advantages of such a
line, and when an opportunity offers
will show their interest by their works

There are over two thousand men

Some turkeys are coming in for

money, as now.
We much regret to learn Of the
death of Mrs. Mary A. Browder, Of
Raleigh, daughter Of our friend Col.
L. L. Polk, which occurred at Raleigh
on Tuesday. The family have our
sincere sympathy.
We heard a farmer say yesterday
that the farmers of Buncombe were,
generally, in better condition than he
had known for years. With plenty
supplies on hand for all home pur-
poses, and to spare, all they have to
have money for is to pay taxes, and
this they will soon be able to do if
they are not already prepared. After
this they can sit unmolested under
their own fig trees, so to speak, and
enjoy the fruits of their labor.
The Charlotte Chronicle, speaking
of tie retirement of Mr.. Stone, says:
"We learn with sincere sorrow
that Jordan Stone, Esq, has with
drawn from the Asheville CITIZEN,
and will leave the State. This ia a
great loss to the CITIZEN, to Western
North Carolina and the entire State.
Ho is a practical, energetic, wise,
successful business man, and news
paper manager; and citizen with
heart and enterprise that accom-
plished much in the up-building of
Ashevilie, and his entire section of
the State. Our best wishes follow
him to his new and distant home in
California.

HENDERSON ITEMS.

I1ENDERSON ITEMS.
From the Times Of the 18th We
take the following:
Owing to some "hitch' with the
purchasers of the zircons in New
York, the work in the Green River
zircon mines has been at standstill
for several weeks, but operations
have been resumed, and about forty
hands are now busily engaged in
mining the precious ores. Capt.
NJ. G. Toms has purchased Prof.
w. E. Hidden's interest in the mines,
which are now the sole property OF
Capt. Toms and Mr.. H. G. Ewart,
the former gentleman owning two>
thirds interest and the latter one
third interest.
There is now demand for the
zircons which is permanent and
Unsuitable, unless many other mines
shall be discovered in other parts of
the world, and this is improbable,
as men are searching in every place
for new discoveries, but, SO far.
without success.
The Green River mines when
fully opened will furnish employ
ment for at least one hundred or two
hundred hands, and the wealth they
will bring into the county is incal-
culable.-Maj. Theodore 6. Bark
er is having the way cleared Of tim
Der and other distinctions for an
extension Of his Ochlawaha canal
by which he proposes to drain the
large body Of fine lands owned by
him. The canal will be at least Two
miles long, and will prepare hum
dreds of acres of the richest lands in
Western Carolina for cultivation.
The great improvements which are
being effected by the Major will
prove of incalculable benefit to the
county, by preparing the way for
the drainage of the entire Ochlawa-
ha valley, and when this shall have
been fully accomplished Henderson
will have undisputed claims for
being the richest farming county in
the Western section OF the State
The trial of Bony laughter and
J. S. LYDIA, for the murder of S. NJ
King, sr., as reported in the last issue
of the TIMES, was concluded on
Tuesday. Laughter was committed
to Jail to await hearing at the next
term of the court, and was ordered
to the Asheville Jail for sate-keeping
LYDIA was released on $1,000 bail.

How A LIVE Town WORKS AND WITH
WHAT REsULTs-WHAT MORE RAIL
ROADS Do.
An exchange informs us:
"At a recent meeting of the "Com
monwealth club" composed of capi-
talists of Durham, steps.Wers taken to
have that town connected by tele-
phone with Raleigh, Charlotte, Win
ston, Wilmington and o'her places of
commercial interest in the State. The
erection of a 100000 hotel was also
discussed in a most favorable manner.
A wealthy cotton manufacturer from
Providence, Rhode Island, has been
in consultation with the club, looking
to the establishment of a mill Of
$4,000 spindles, costing $25O,OOO.
All these enterprises are the out
growth of the recent railroad schemes
in that section of the State"
Two things are suggested by the
above which we wish to impress upon
the people of Asheville. First, the
advantage of united action, and sec
ond, the effect of new competing rail-
roads on community. These need
no elaboration. They carry their
own suggestions, and we sincerely
trust will carry conviction.
